DOUGLAS Ross attempted to dodge blame for last year’s unprecedented Westminster chaos saying he and the Scottish Conservatives “were not involved”.
In his first speech of the new year, the Scottish Tory leader tried to paint all other opposition parties in the Scottish Parliament as being in cahoots with the SNP – positioning his party as the only one to stand up against the “cosy Holyrood consensus”.
Speaking in Edinburgh on Friday, Ross admitted his branch of the party had “more often than not” been caught “on the backfoot because of events we were not involved with”.
